Among adults with #PTSD, intermittent oral TSND-201 treatment produced greater reductions in PTSD symptoms than placebo and was well tolerated, supporting its potential as a rapid-acting, durable pharmacologic option. ja.ma/4kNAHiz

Excited to share that Transcend Therapeutics raised $40 million in Series A funding. This fundraise will accelerate development of our lead compound and bring us a step closer to offering life-saving treatments to the 1 billion people who suffer from mental health illness.
Wall Street is betting millions of dollars on psychedelic drugs that could treat mental illness for a fraction of what better-known therapies cost on.wsj.com/3It7BT5

Great primer on psychedelics in Cell written by my cofounder Dr. Ben Kelmendi, @DrChrisPitt, @kwanalexc, and @akaye, all involved with the Yale Center for Psychedelic Science.
A primer article about #psychedelics. We wanted a concise and accurate piece to share with undergraduates, journalists, and others who want to know more. Free link via @CurrentBiology: cell.com/current-biology/ful… @YalePsych @YaleMed 1/n

Thich Nhat Hanh, rest in peace. Your books changed my life, and were my first exposure to Buddhism during some of my worst moments. May you have broken your cycle of samsara.

We are backed by @alley_corp , an incubator and venture capital fund that has founded some of the most transformative companies in New York, including MongoDB and many others. AlleyCorp incubations have collectively raised $1B+ in venture capital with an aggregate value of $30B+.

Come hang and learn why 3D printing is so hard: joinclubhouse.com/event/PNje…
The vision of 3D printing is a world where manufacturing is simply printing any design with any material. Join @vivekladsariya and I tomorrow at 9PM ET to demystify 3D printing, especially the journey from CAD to print, with Kevin Han, CEO of @AON3D. joinclubhouse.com/event/PNje…

Watching Pence say "Biden will raise taxes on every American" is like an acid trip loop gone wrong

Solving child care and elder care would improve socioeconomic mobility and bring back the American dream. Couple thoughts below...
“A child care and elder care system that makes it possible for parents to go to work” You and me both @JoeBiden!

How wonderful would it be if every child had the development resources to maximize their potential? Too many children are stunted by a lack of early-childhood stimulation.

When parents need to choose between putting food on the table and spending time with their children, both parent and child lose. In the wealthiest country in the world, we should be able to do better.
